First Social

Mark — Mon, 26 Sep 2011 12:53:35 +0000

Hi guys, remember to come along to our first social of the year this Tuesday 27th september. If you are unsure where to go then check this map out! The socials are held every Tuesday at 9pm starting at The Fountain. We are normally downstairs in the lounge area near to the caving photos. The Fountain is home to the caving challenge which some might suggest is an initiation, however the committee will show how its done first of all!

A small group will meet freshers at the porters lodge reception at around 8 this tuesday and next, and another group in front of spoons at around 8.30.

Come along for a pint or two and meet us!

Provisional Weekend Trips for 2011

Mark — Sun, 24 Jul 2011 20:16:45 +0000

Hi all, ive been trying to work out booking huts and stuff for the coming term. SWCC is already booked for the term, so we are going to hopefully kick start the year off in Croydon (no not the place, the hut!) which is in Ystradfellte, close to Tobys favourites like bridge cave, Pant Mawr and Porth-y-ogof. Hopefully around October 15-16th.

Next is Fireworks weekend, where we are hopefully trying to keep with tradition and staying at the belfry. this is where we can see Luke getting lost on a magical tour of Bristol and Henry throwing giant wood axes at balloons. This will be November 4-5th.

SWCC and Derbyshire will hopefully follow in 2012, along with a long awaited trip down Otter Hole, which we can hopefully sort!

ACC New Committee

Mark — Sun, 22 May 2011 21:35:22 +0000

Thanks Henry for “lending” us your house for us to trash, so that we could elect the new committee!

Take a Glance at the fresh faces in charge of the club, who will get you drunk, take your money and get you lost in a cave!

AGM 2011

Jono — Thu, 19 May 2011 13:17:40 +0000

Hey Guys, the time has come for the Caving Club Committee elections, 2011!

Hopefully you get the idea, but if you want to run for a position on the committee give me an email or a text so we can see who is running for what. At the AGM, people running for positions can have a little speech and give us a quick insight into why they want to be president, treasurer etc.

We do all the voting on the night, so as long as you turn up to the AGM you can run for a position.

The current location of the AGM is Tan Y Bwlch beach (The one beyond the Aber Harbour for you basic folk), However, this may change depending on the weather, to which Luke Chester will develop a PLAN B.

***PLAN B***

Its going to rain pretty heavy tommorrow night so camping on the beach would be pretty shit and everyone would get wet pretty quick. Lucky for us we have the amazingly generous Henry who has donated his flat for the AGM.

His address is 64 North Parade and his name is written on the doorbell. Henry’s flat is really easy to find as its on the main road at the bottom of the hill into town form uni. If your coming from uni then head into town and it is just past little spar, and over the road on the right.

As there wont be a fire (unless we burn henrys things but he might get angry…), i suggest that everyone eats before coming as there wont b space to cook food.

If we get there for about 8ish then it give people who had exams even more time to relax and eat and stuff

The only thing you need is plenty of alcohol and if anyone wants to donate some crisps or something to nibble on while AGMing it would be much appreciated. bIf anyone has the will power after the agm then we might go to the pub so bring some money just in case

Good Luck with the elections guys! Get running for them positions and good luck with your exams!

Positions:
President
Secretary
Social Secretary
Treasurer
Kit Secretary
Web Master
Club Gimp

Christmas Meal and Last Social of 2010

becca — Mon, 13 Dec 2010 13:25:28 +0000

Tomorrow is our final social of 2010, and also our Christmas Meal so it’s a big one. The 20 of you who’ve paid come along to Inn on Pier at around 6 for a few pre-drinks, the meal starts at 7 in the pier Brassiere. The meal will cost £10.95 as the deposits have been paid. The theme is CHRISTMAS, so as much tinsel and baubles you can fit on your bodies.

If you haven’t paid for the meal and you still want to come to the social afterwards, we’ll be in Harleys (large pub near the Orangery) around half 9 maybe…

Come along, we want lots of effort, tinsel, and christmas cheer!

Oh, and it’s Huw’s birthday next saturday!

There’s spaces left, so if you want to come this weekend, leave a comment or send Megan an email asap. There will be an awesome fireworks display in the local village on the Saturday night, as well as an opportunity to visit the best pub in the world and meet some new cavers. Cost will be £30 all in.

Dachstein

Oli — Thu, 02 Sep 2010 09:43:15 +0000

Happily the ACC contingent (and indeed the whole expedition) survived Dachstein. This means my leaving-do can continue as planned.
